If you haven't seen Avenger 1, just watch Avenger 2. I still generally understand the plot. The retired agent lives an incognito life, but he will occasionally stand up and clean up when he sees injustice. Unexpectedly, after extending justice for others so many times, his only friend Susan was killed. After investigation, it turned out that his old subordinate had turned from a cadre of a central enterprise into a private boss. In order to cover up a certain incident, he killed all relevant personnel. This angered the veteran cadres and decided to clean up the doors one by one. And then the beautiful ending.
This film has a bit of depth, it's not a simple plot, it's fighting and killing for justice. There are many branch lines in it, like the relationship with Michael, like the old man's painting, and the first person who killed the scum who kidnapped and sold his child. But what do you want to express? To be honest, I really don't understand. So I don't think this movie can give high marks. If it is said that McCall lived a normal life, occasionally doing chivalrous work, helping the elderly to fulfill their wishes, and guiding the delinquent youth to the right path. What does that have to do with the war with the old subordinates? To express these, in fact, it is enough to express one or two. You can't spend half the time of a movie talking about this, right?
This is totally difficult for me to understand. Just as there should be a beginning and a turn in a play, this one is too long and seems procrastinated.
Let's not talk about this. Straight to the point where it looks good.
The climax is undoubtedly McCall's battle with his old men. There's great design, great fights, and cool backgrounds. Veteran cadre McCall took advantage of the familiar terrain, bad weather, and the elusive figure to clean up the four old subordinates one by one with Chinese martial arts-like kung fu. The best thing here is the two points, one is the background, it is rainy, windy and rainy. McCall is really good at making a fuss about this weather. As a result, the sniper's field of vision is not very good, which is conducive to McCall to kill the subordinates who have become villains one by one. Although it was enjoyable to watch, the old boss was still the old boss, and his intelligence was excellent. The four old subordinates could clean up. Even if they were over half a hundred years old and their big belly was obviously bulging, it would not prevent the old boss from killing and killing.
Although the climax is here, what I paid more attention to was the analysis of the case by the old chief. Forgive me for being a supporter of conspiracy and tricks, such as investigating cases, setting up bureaus, etc., all make me enjoy watching. Like the first part of "Prison Break", like "My Old Life" and so on, I especially like it. Because of this, I can follow the characters inside to analyze and explore their ideas, analysis methods and special places. Experts can always predict a few steps ahead of others, but we often lack thinking.
From the point of view of Susan's death, McCall analyzed that it was killed by a professional killer. From the analysis of the death of the young couple, it was murder. The analysis is reasonable. But this is mostly derived from field simulations. McCall is an attention to detail. I admire this very much. When I saw him neatly arrange the washed apples one by one, I knew he was amazing. The world is most afraid of people who are truthful, and the old cadre McCall is such a person. So every time they kill, they will be reminded to give them a chance, and then kill kill kill. There is another feature here. Almost everything McCall has at hand is a weapon, and he is especially good at using knives, short knives and small knives. It fits his character very well.
Those who achieve big things are not careful about the small things. In fact, the small things are not small things, not paying attention to details, but giving up small interests and focusing on big goals. Those who achieve great things must pay attention to the details. This is true of the paranoid Steve Jobs, and the same is true of Stephen Chow, who has never been understood. Their excessive pursuit of details is what they are today.
A great achiever is a person who pays attention to details.
